Abstract

The modern student is very sensitive to all changes that are even being outlined in the field of education: the so-called ersatz-learning does not suits  student in any way. There are precedents according to which, students turn to the university leadership with complaints about the "lack of educational services." In this regard, the modern practice of the use of distance technologies is often perceived by students as an attempt by the teacher to skimp on his direct responsibilities and "simplify" the learning process.

This work is devoted to the analysis of the views of students of the Nizhny Novgorod State University (NNSU) regarding the appropriateness and effectiveness of the use of distance learning technologies in the educational process. Focus group - full-time and part-time students and the model of “blended learning” as the most effective form of parallel attraction of digital didactic material.

Distance learning at Nizhny Novgorod State University has been actively introduced into the educational process since 2013, that is, from the time when “Philology remotely” was opened at UNN - the undergraduate profile of “Russian Philology”, fully realized remotely by means of in the Moodle NNSU 98 electronic guided courses (ECUs). Thus, UNN teachers have been given the opportunity for seven years to hone their skills in creating and maintaining ECUs, and students, respectively, - learning in an electronic environment.

In this paper, we consider not only the assessment of students in the field of mastering ECUs carried out in the Moodle NNGU, they analyze the general opinion regarding the use of educational systems located on various MOOC platforms, and also discuss the appropriateness of the so-called micro-learning.

The results of the analysis of the completed questionnaires made us think and revise many facts and phenomena related to some aspects of the digitalization of higher education in Russia.

Keyphrases: Digital educational area, Distance learning technologies, Moodle, digitalization of education
